Thank you for sharing this! This is another one of those situations where we are just now seeing the noticeable, dramatic payoff of years and years of quiet, unnoticed environmental work.
“Experts say years of conservation efforts have resulted in some of the healthiest waters in generations, with booming fish populations, clearer ocean waves and more chances to interact with our urban aquarium.”
This quote also really got me:
“‘It never gets old, it’s always thrilling,’ said Celia Ackerman, a naturalist with American Princess Cruises who captured the images. As a child growing up in Brooklyn, Ackerman couldn’t wait to move out of the city so she could study marine animals. 'I would have never imagined I could enjoy them here right in my backyard.’”

Not to be an old lesbian, but all these kids saying “fruity” better not be the same people who want to get rid of “queer” because it’s a slur.

Down the Rabbit Hole Table of Contents
Tumblr media
A reporter who’s lost her sense of purpose stumbles onto the trail of an enormous and dangerous conspiracy within the body of the slumbering behemoth that makes up the body of the Mystery Flesh Pit, a former US National Park, closed after an easily-avoided disaster on July 4th, 2007.
Down the Rabbit Hole is divided into three books and has a total length of roughly 397 pages, or 212,500 words. Links to specific parts can be accessed below the break.

Knowing that Japanese courts have a conviction rate of 99.9% really enhances the experience of Ace Attorney.
On one hand, it gives you the minimum context to understand that Ace Attorney was intended as a critique of the justice system in which it takes place—the ridiculous hoops you have to jump through, the over-the-top bloodthirst of the prosecution, the blind naivete of the judge. It gives the games more thematic weight, too. Phoenix truly is an underdog pitting himself against a system he knows he has little chance against. His belief in his clients' innocence is not merely a character trait, but a revolutionary act. It also emphasizes that Phoenix truly is a force of nature, to win as many cases as he does.
On the other hand, it makes the prosecutors' pride in their "win record" absolutely hilarious, and the fact that Phoenix breaks it even more so. Imagine spending 40 years bragging about how you have a perfect record of never being struck by lightning and then some bisexual idiot six months out of grad school casts Thunderbolt on your ass

Not just the NYT, this is just how the press operates in times of crisis for state power.
You really think the media would do that? Just go in their newspaper and publish lies?

Fucking iconic. It would also allow suing rapists and domestic abusers with awards starting from 10,000, where if the case is won, half the money goes into a fund for women seeking abortions in other states. It’s modelled exactly from Texas’s unconstitutional bullshit bill. Anyone who opposes the constitutionality of this bill would also be calling into question the anti-abortion bill.

Underappreciated things about original book!Dracula: turns up in a giant fake beard to pick Jonathan up, claiming to be a coachman working for himself, for no particular reason. Despite having red eyes, visibly sharp teeth, superhuman strength, and being the only person Jonathan meets in the entire country who speaks German fluently.
Jonathan still falls for this.
